Hi all,
I'm writing a series of blog posts for a professional audio client about unusual audio equipment used on landmark recordings. One of the subjects is the use of a pair of Philips hi-fi speakers on the mix sessions for The Wall, The Division Bell and on Rogers Waters Pros & Cons album. I've found the picture below online but I can't find either a useable high-resolution version of it or who owns it (the head in the picture I believe is Andy Jackson, who I've spoken to about it. He doesn't remember it being taken).
So can anybody here help? It's been suggested to me that the image appears on the sleeve/booklet art on some versions of The Endless River. Can somebody confirm that?
Anyway, all help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Phil

Phil, good luck with the search. The console looks like many Astoria 'studio' images but it's not an image that I specifically recognise ... regarding your request, I checked the UK issued CD&Blu-ray of the 'Endless River' and the image is NOT included in the small format hardback book contained in the box.

Thanks TWCC, the console has been definitely identified as the Amek Hendrix at Gilmour's Astoria studio – Andy Jackson, whose head it is in the pic confirmed that for me. It's just that I can't find anything but a tiny, low-res and unusable version of the pic, and I can't establish who took it, so I can't get permission to use it anyway. Thanks for having a look in the Endless River book anyeway. That was pretty much my last hope.twcc wrote:Phil, good luck with the search.
